In basic idea behind selecting the topic of “Employee Hiring” is to study how
employees are hired. Today organizations are coming up with the new techniques of
hiring people. Hence to study how the actual process is carried in the organization.
Research methodology
This project aims the finding out and analyzing the hiring process in the organization.
2. This project will help to get the practical knowledge in employee hiring in the
organization.
Limitation
People form an integral part of the organization. The efficiency and quality of its
people determines the fate of the organization. Hence choice of right people and
placing them at right place becomes essential. Hiring comes at this point of time in
the picture. Hiring is a strategic function for HR department. Recruitment and
selection form the process of hiring the employees. Recruitment is the systematic
process of generating a pool of qualified applicant for organization job. The
process includes the step like HR planning attracting applicant and screening them.
This step is affected by various factors, which can be internal as well as
external. The organization makes use of various methods and sources for this
purpose.
Selection is carried from the screen applicant during the recruitment process. There is
also some specific process is involved. By the way of conducting preliminary
interview and conducting the various test , if required reference check and
further final interview is conducted. During the process there are certain
difficulties and barriers that are to be overcomes.
1.1 INTRODUCTION
People are integral part of any organization today. No organization can run
without its human resources. In today’s highly complex and competitive situation,
choice of right person at the right place has far reaching implications for an
organization’s functioning. Employee well selected and well placed would not
only contribute to the efficient running of the organization but offer significant
potential for future replacement. This hiring is an important function. The process
of hiring begins with human resource planning (HRP) which helps to determine
the number and type of people on organization needs. Job analysis and job design
enables to specify the task and duties of hobs and qualification expected from
prospective job HRP, job analysis, hob design helps to identify the kind of people
required in an organization and hence hiring. It should be noted that hiring is an
ongoing process and not confined to formative stages of an organization.
Employees leave the organization in search of greener pastures, some retire and
some die in the saddle. More importantly an enterprises grows, diversifies, take
over the other units all necessitating hiring of new men and women. In fact the
hiring function stops only when the organization ceases to exist.

RECRUITMENT
The word ‘recruitment’ has many meaning and plays an important role. Employees
leave the organization in search of greener pastures- some retire some die in saddle.
The most important thing is that enterprise grows, diversifies, and takes over other
units-all necessitating hiring of new men and women. In fact recruitment functions
stop only when the organization ceases to exist. To understand recruitment in simple
terms it is understood as process of searching for obtaining applications of job from
among from whom the right people can be selected. To define recruitment we can
define it formally as it is a process of finding and attracting capable applicants for
employment. The process begins when new recruit are sought and ends when their
application are submitted. The result is a pool of applicants from which new
employees are selected. Theoretically, recruitment process is said to end with receipt
of application in practice the activity extends to the screening applicants as to
eliminate those who are not qualified for job.

1.2 PURPOSE AND IMPORTANCE
3. Help increase the success rate of the selection process by reducing the number
visibly under qualified or job application;
4. Help reduce the probability that job applicants, once recruited selected, will leave
the organization only after a short period of time;
5. Meet the organizations legal and social obligation regarding the composition of its
workforce;
6. Being identifying and preparing potential job applicants who will be appropriate
candidates;
7. Increase organization individual effectiveness in the short term and long term;
8. Evaluate the effectiveness of various recruiting technique and sources for all types
of job applicants.

1.3 FACTORS AFFECTING RECRUITMENT
There are a number of factors that affect recruitment. These are broadly classified into
two categories:
1. Internal factors
2. External factors
INTERNAL FACTORS
The internal factors also called as “endogenous factors” are the factors within the
organization that affect recruiting personnel in the organization.
The size of the organization affects the recruitment process. Larger organization
finds recruitment less problematic than organization with smaller in size.
Recruiting policy
The recruitment policy of the organization i.e. recruiting from internal sources and
external sources also affect the recruitment process. Generally, recruitment through
internal sources is preferred, because own employees know the organization and they
can well fit in to the organization culture.
4
Image of the organization
Image of the organization is another factor having its influence on the recruitment
process of the organization. Good image of the organization earned by the number of
overt and covert action by management helps attract potential and complete
candidates. Managerial actions like good public relations, rendering public service
like building roads, public parks, hospitals and schools help earn image or goodwill
for organization. That is why chip companies attract the larger numbers of
application.
5
EXTERNAL FACTORS
Like internal factors, there are some factors external to organization, which have
their influence on recruitment process. Some of these are given below:-
Demographic factors
Labor market condition I.e. supply and demand of labor is of particular importance in
affecting recruitment process. E.g. if the demand for specific skill is high relative to
its supply is more than for particular skill, recruitment will be relatively easier.
Unemployment situation
The rate of unemployment is yet another external factor its influence on the
recruitment process. When the employment rate in an area is high, the recruitment
process tends to simpler. The reason is not difficult to seek. The number of
application is expectedly very high which makes easier to attract the best-qualified
applications. The reserve is also true. With low rate of unemployment, recruiting
process tend to become difficult
.
Labor laws
There are several labor laws and regulations passed by the central and state
governments that govern different type of employment. These cover working
condition, compensation, retirement benefits, safety and health of employee in
industrial undertakings.
6
The child Labour Act,1986; for example prohibits employment of children in certain
employments.
Similarly several other acts such as the Employment Exchange Act,1958; The
Apprentice Act, 1961; the Factory Act,1948; and The Mines Act, 1952 deal with
recruitment.
Legal consideration

1.4 INTERNAL SOURCES
Present employees:
Promotions and transfer from among the present employees can be good sources
of recruitment. Promotion implies upgrading of an employee to a higher position
carrying higher status, pay and responsibilities. Promotion from among the
present employees is advantageous because the employees promoted are well
acquainted with the organization culture, they get motivated and it is cheaper also.
Promotion from among the person employees also reduces the requirement of job
training. However, the disadvantage lies in limiting the choice of the few people
and denying hiring of outsiders who may be better qualified and skilled.
Furthermore, promotion from among present employees also results in
inbreeding, which creates frustration among those not promoted. Transfer refers
to shifting an employee from one job to another without any change in the
position/post, status and responsibilities. The need for transfer is felt to provide
employees a broader and carried base, which is considered necessary for
promotion. Job rotation involves transfer of employees from one job to another
job on the lateral basis.
Former employees:
8
Employee referrals:
This is yet another internal source of recruitment. The existing employees refer to
the family members, friends and relatives to the company potential candidates for
the vacancies to be filled up in the organization. This source serves as the most
effective methods of recruiting people in the organizations because refer to those
potential candidates who meet the company requirement known to them from
their own experience. The referred individuals are expected to be similar in type
in the of race and sex, for example, to those who are already working in the
organization
Previous applicant:
This is considered as internal source in the sense that applications from the
potential candidates are already lying with organization. Sometimes the
organization contacts though mail or messengers these applicants to fill up the
vacancies particularly for unskilled or semiskilled jobs.
9
EVALUATION OF INTERNAL SOURCES:
Let us, evaluate the internal source of recruitment. Obviously, it can be done in
terms of its advantage and disadvantage the same are spelled out as follows:
ADVANTAGES:
Economical recruitment:
In case of internal recruitment, the organization does not need to spend much
money, time and effort to locate and attract the potential candidates. Thus,
internal recruitment proves to be economical, or say, inexpensive.
Improves morale:
This method makes employees sure that they would be preferred over the
outsiders as and when they filled up in the organization vacancies.
A motivator:
Limited choice:
Internal recruitment limits its choice to the talents available within the
organization. Thus, it denies the tapping of talents available in the vast labor
market outside the organization. Moreover, internal recruitment serves as a means
for “inbreeding”, which is never healthy for the future organizations.
Discourage competition:
In this system, the internal candidates are protected from competition by not
giving opportunity to otherwise competent candidates from outside the
organization. This in turn, develops a tendency among the employees to take the
promotion without showing extra performance.
Stagnation of skills:
With the feeling that internal candidates will surely get promoted, their skill in the
long run may become stagnant or obsolete. If so, productivity and sufficiency of
the organization, in turn, decreases.
Creates conflicts:
Conflicts and controversies surface among the internal candidates, whether or not
they deserve promotion.
11
1.5 EXTERNAL SOURCES
Employment exchanges:
The national commission labor (1969) observed in its report that in the pre-
independence era, the main source of labor war rural areas surrounding the
industries. Immediately after independence, national employment services were
established to bring employer and job seeker together. In response to it, the
compulsory notification of vacancies act of 1959 (Commonly called employment
exchange act) was instituted which become operative in 1960.the main functions
of these employment exchanges with the branches in most cities are registration
of job seeker and tier placement in the notified vacancies. It is obligatory for
employer to inform about the outcome of selection within 15 days to the
employment exchange. Employment exchange is particularly useful in recruiting
blue-collar, white- collar and technical workers.
Employment agencies:
In addition to the government agencies, there are number of private agencies that
register candidates for employment and furnish a list of suitable candidates from
the data bank as and when sought by the prospective employer. Generally, these
agencies select personnel for supervisory and the higher levels. The main function
of these agencies is to invite application and short-list the suitable candidates for
the organization. Of course, the representative of the organization takes the final
decision on selection. The employer organizations derive several advantages
through this source. The time saved in this method can be better utilized
elsewhere by the organization. As the organizational identity remains unknown to
the job speakers, it, thus, avoid receiving letters and attempts to influence.
12
Advertisement:
This method of recruitment can be used for jobs like clerical, technical, and
managerial. The higher the position in the organization, the more specialized the
skills or the shorter the supply of that resources in the labour market, the more
widely dispersed the advertisement are likely to be. For instance, the search for a
top executive might include advertisements in a national daily like the Hindu.
Some employers/companies advertise their post by giving them post box number
of the name of some recruiting agency. This is done to particular keep own
identity secret to avoid unnecessary correspondence with the applicants. However
the disadvantage of these blind advertisement, i.e., post box number is that the
potential job seekers are the hesitant without unknowing the image of the
organization, on the one hand, and the bad image/ reputation that the blind
advertisement have received because of the organizations that placed such
advertisements without position lying vacant just to know supply of labor/
workers in the labor market, on the other. While preparing advertisement, a lot of
care has to be taken to make it clear and to the point. It must ensure that some
self-selection among applicant take place and only qualified applicant responds
the advertisement copy should be prepared by using a four-point guide called
AIDA . The letters in the acronym denote that advertisement should attract
Attention, gain Interest, arouse a Desire and result in action.
13
Professional Associations
Very often, recruitment for certain professional and technical positions is made
through professionals association also called ‘Headhunters’. Institute of
Engineers, All India Management Association, etc., provide placement service
to the members. The professional associations prepare either list of jobseekers
or publish or sponsor journal or magazines containing advertisements for
their member. It is particularly useful for attracting highly skilled and
professional personnel. However, in India, this is not a very common
practice and those few provide such kind service have not been able to
generating a large number of application.
Campus Recruitment
Word-of-mouth:
15
Raiding or Poaching:
This is another sources of recruitment whereby the rival firm by offering terms
and conditions, try to attract qualified employees to join the. This raiding is a
common feature in the Indian organizations. For instance, service executive of HMT
left to join Titan Watch Company, so also exodus of pilot from Indian Airlines to
join the private air taxi operator. In fact, raiding has become challenge for the human
resource manager.
Besides these, walk - ins, contractors, radio and television, acquisitions and
merger, etc., art some other sources of recruitment used by organization.
16
EVALUATION OF EXTERNAL SOURCES:
Like the internal source of recruitment, external sources are mixed of advantages and
disadvantages
ADVANTAGES:-
Open process
With the large pool of applicants, it becomes possible for organization to have
talented candidates from the outside. Thus, it introduces new blood in the
organization.
17
DISADVANTAGES:
However, the external sources of recruitment suffer from certain disadvantages too,
these are:
Expensive and time consuming:
This method of recruitment is both expensive and time consuming. There is no
guarantee that organization will get good and suitable candidates.
Existing employees are not sure to get promotion. This discourages them to do the
hard work. This, in turn, boils down to decreasing productivity of the organization.

1.7 RECRUIMENT PROCESS
• Recruitment planning;
• Strategy Development;
• Searching;
• Screening;
Recruitment Planning: -
The first involved in the recruitment process is planning. Hire, planning involves
to draft a comprehensive job specification for the vacant position, outline its
major and minor responsibilities; the skills, experience and qualifications
needed; grade and level of pay; starting date; whether temporary or
permanent; and mention of special condition, if any, attached to the job to
be filled.
Strategy Development:-
Searching:-
This step involves attracting job seeders to the organization. There are broadly
two sources used to attract candidates. These are:
Internal Sources
External Sources.
Screening:-
22
Evaluation and control:-
Given the considerable involved in the recruitment process, its evaluation and
control is, therefore, imperative. The costs generally incurred in a recruitment
process include:
• Salary of recruiters;
• Cost of time spent for preparing job analysis, advertisement, etc;
• Administrative expenses;
• Cost of outsourcing or overtime while vacancies remain unfilled;
• Cost incurred in recruiting unsuitable candidates.
23
1.8 METHODS OF RECRUITMENT
Direct Method;
Indirect Method;
Direct Method:
In this method, the representatives of the organizations are sent to the potential
candidates in the educational and training institutes. They establish contacts with the
candidates seeking jobs. Person pursuing management, engineering, medical, etc.
programmers are mostly picked up the manner.
24
Indirect Method;
The experience suggests that the higher the position to be filled up in the
organization, or the skill sought by the sophisticated one, the more widely
dispersed advertisement is likely to be used to reach too many suitable
candidates. Sometimes, many organizations go for what referred to as blind
advertisement in which only Box No. is given and the identity of the
organization is not disclosed. However, organizations with regional or national
repute do not usually use blind advertisements for obvious reasons.
While placing an advertisement to reach to the potential candidates, the
following three points need to borne in mind:
To visualize the type of the applicant one is trying recruit;
To write out a list of the advantages the job will offer;
To decide where to run the advertisement , i.e., newspaper with local,
state, nation-wide and international reach or circulation.
25
Third Party Method:
These include the use of private employment agencies, management
consultants, professional bodies pr associations, employee referral or
recommendation, voluntary organization, trade banks, labor contractors, etc.,
to establish contact with the job seekers.
Though there has so far not been evolved any formula such that makes recruitment
programme necessitates having certain attributes such as:
A suitable method and technique for tapping and utilizing these candidates
Recruitment and selection are the two crucial in the HR process and are often used
interchangeably. There I, however, a fine distinction between the two steps. While
recruitment refers to the process of identifying and encouraging prospective
employees to apply for jobs, selection is concerned with picking the right
candidates from the pool of applicants. Recruitment is said to be positive in its
approach as it seeks to attract as many candidates as possible. Selection, on the other
hand, is negative in its application in as it seeks to eliminate as many unqualified
applicants as possible in order to identify the right candidates.
27
2.2 ROLE OF SELECTION
28
2.4 ORGANISATION FOR SELECTION
Until recently, the basic hiring process was performed in a rather unplanned
manner in many organizations. In some companies, each department screened and
hired its own employees. Many managers insisted upon selecting their own people
because they were sure no one else could choose employee for them as efficiently as
they themselves could. Not any more. Selection is now centralized and is handled by
the human resources department.
Ideally, a selection process involves mutual decision-making. The organization
decides whether or not to make a job offer and how attractive the offer should be. The
candidate decides whether or not organization and the fob offer fit his or her needs
and goal. In reality, the selection process is highly one-side. When the job market is
extremely right, several candidates will be applying for a position, and the
organization will use a series of screening devices to hire the candidates it feels
is most suitable. When there is a shortage of qualified workers, or when the
candidate is a highly qualified executive or professional who is being sought
after by several organizations, the organizations will have to sweeten its offer and
come to a quicker decision.
29
2.5 NEW METHOD OF SELECTION
In recent years, HR specialists have found out new methods of selection. These
approaches are deemed to the alternatives to the traditional methods of selection.
30
2.6 SELECTION IN INDIA
Selection practices in hiring skilled and managerial personnel are fairly well
defined and systematically practiced. Particularly in hiring managerial personnel
and executives, a lot of professionalism has come in, thanks to the realization that
these individual are difficult to come by and no effort is too excess to attract
them. Specialist agencies to available whose services are retained for hiring
technical and managerial personnel. Merit and not favorite, objectivity and
subjectivity will be the criteria for such selections.
31
3. CASE STUDIES
32
Recommendations for Human Resources Objectives are made by the members of the
top Management, (GM & Above), who will from the decision making group to
authorized manpower requirement and related action plan and formulate the
manpower budget.
The P&A department is intimated of the selection decision by the MD/DMD. The
P/A Department prior to issue of letter of appointment is carried out checking of
references if required. The selected candidates are given ‘Letter of Offer ‘ as per
(Annexure-9) by GM (P&A) ,which the candidates has to acknowledge as token of
his acceptance of appointment.
The P&A Department prepares the letter of appointment. For senior management
cadre appointee (of level DGM & above), the letter of appointment is signed by the
MD/DMD. GM (P&A) will sign letter of appointment for other levels. The letter of
employment contents date of joining, designation, and Compensation package
including allowable perquisites. Inter office memos are used for communicating
important. Recruitment related issues with other departments.

33
1. INVENTORY OF CURRENT RESOURCES:
This component establishes the basis for future actions in the plan. The inventory
will cover the number and type of person required with identified job positions and
will take into consideration the educational background, work experience and age
group. Most of the inventory data should be available in the existing personal files.
The future requirement and current resources should be established before future
actions are determined. Internal and external factor, which may influence the plan
most, are to be identified and analyzed.
This includes, eminent retirement, transfers and promotions and terminations and
other charges that effect the current personal population. On this basis, taking into
consideration the pervious trend, the P&A Department prepares a Manpower turnover
statement. Anticipation changes in the external environment that affects the business
any internal change of direction in the business itself.
Recruitment corporations have started linking their mission, objectives, strategies and
tactics (MOST) to the functions of recruitment and selection. The economic
liberalizations and consequent competition through quality and service necessitated
the companies to search for and attract competent human resources. Corporation
focusing on new business development will have to seek interregnal abilities,
companies planning to withdraw from diversification, must look for pragmatists and
companies chasing growth alliances should employ people comfortable in different
cultural backgrounds. Above all companies must hire for the future anticipation jobs
that may not be in existence yet recruitment managers must focus for attitudes and
approaches that fit the corporate goals and culture.
34
4. RECRUITMENT POLICY
Recruitment policy of any organization is derived from the personal policy of the
same organization. In other words the former is a part of the latter. However,
recruitment policy by itself should take into considerations the government
reservation policy, policy regarding sons of soil etc., personal policies of other
organization regarding merit, internal sources, social responsibilities in absorbing
minority sections, women etc. Recruitment policy is like enriching the organization’s
human resources serving the commodity by absorbing the weaker sections and
disadvantaged people the society, motivation the employees through internal
promotions, improving the employee’s loyalty to the organization by absorbing the
retrenched or laid-off employee or dependents of present former employees etc.
5. IMPLEMENTATION PLAN:

additional manpower requirement for the projected plan period within frameworks of
the comprehensive plan the line functionaries is responsible for the amendment to
meet operating requirements.

with the various Hoods and the P&A department. Implementation of the manpower
plan entails a variety of control measures to ensure compliance by all sections of the
organization. The control measures include the requisite system enveloping either

at specified time period on the progress of implementation.
The interview panel comprises of the head of the concerned department, another
member of the same department and a senior level manager from the P&A
department additionally, it is left to the discretion of the director(P&A) to strengthen
the board with more member depending on the circumstances. Every member of the

The IMS Way…
'Love the job you are doing and you will never have to work a day in your life’.
This simple adage captures the essence of our employees being with us. Our team
members at IMS are here because they identify with IMS's vision – that of
'mentoring' the youth of this country to dream, 'motivating' them towards greater
hopes and aspirations and 'guiding' them on the right track to realize those ambitions.
We have a fun-based work culture combined with an open door policy of the
management and approachability, which differentiates us from the also-ran.
Do you have the PASSION to make a positive difference in a young person's life and
in our society? If your answer is Yes, send us your profile to
recruitment@imsindia.com and we shall get in touch with you in case of a suitable
vacancy.
As our credo effectively sums it up, we aim for 'Excellence Through Innovation,
Empathy, and Ethical Values And Teamwork'.
Employee Speak
Our employees are our greatest resources and it is their commitment and drive that
makes IMS what it is today. We believe in our employees and encourage them to
think beyond the obvious and aim beyond the horizon. Go on and read about the
experiences which some of our employees, our pillars of strength would like to share.
Gejo Sreenivasan, a dynamic MBA from IIM-C, who has constantly enriched his
growth from an Assistant Manager (Marketing) to a Product Head today, shares his
reminiscences, "Personally I feel that IMS is a wonderful place to work with. I have
worked with the most talented individuals in the industry. My work experience in
IMS has provided me with a tremendous opportunity to learn and grow. In my
opinion, this is a dynamic organization with unlimited energy."
We have always believed in our employees and it is this very belief and trust that
translates and manifests itself in the initiatives our employees take, the passion and
enthusiasm with which they contribute to our vision and mission. As Manisha Sagar,
Assistant Centre Manager of IMS-Thane, rightly puts it: "Across the hierarchy of
IMS, there are professionals who are treasures of talent and skills, and yet very
humble and helpful. It is because of this amicability and cooperation that even the
most critical situations are dealt with ease. That is what I believe is a vital part of the
IMS work culture."
The work-oriented approach and open corporate etiquette ensures that each of our
employees attains his potential and performs beyond the obvious. Praveen Murmu, an
MBA from IIM-C who has worked with us for over five years in both line as well as
staff functions says, "It has been a great learning experience for me guiding students,
which has provided me a sense of purpose and perspective."
All these viewpoints prove that IMS is an extremely professional organization. At the
same time, we believe in having a work-conducive yet comfortable atmosphere across
our centres. Rajesh Lad, who heads the Sion Centre and also takes lectures, asserts
that he has "experienced a 'family atmosphere' at my centre. Such an environment
very much facilitates the individual's as well the team's optimum performance."
This atmosphere also translates into a very approachable outlook that we maintain
towards all our students - in line with our ideology of 'Mentor. Motivate. Guide.'
Roshni D'Souza, an Assistant Manager with the Systems Team in the Corporate
Office and a Part-Time Faculty, hits the nail on the head with her statement: "There
can never be a monotonous day at IMS because each day presents new students and
through them, new challenges to be faced, new dreams to be nourished, new
experiences to be cherished."
All these experiences at IMS underpin what we have always believed in - our team
members are our greatest assets. Roshni says, " Samuel Butler has rightly said that
People are always good company when they are doing what they really enjoy. This
truism best represents why I am here at IMS. I enjoy talking with students, knowing
about their dreams, helping them out. Despite being a part of the Systems Team, I
utilize the opportunity being a faculty as I enjoy it when students look at me as not
just a faculty but as a guide, a mentor and a friend. I know I am 'good company' for
both-my students as well as my colleagues at IMS."
We as a part of the HR Team would like to share our experiences too…"IMS values
and our philosophy has been close to our hearts. We believe in Mentoring, Motivating
and guiding those associated with us. Be it our students or our employees. In fact, this
led to the inception of IMS Mentorship Programme where we have always
encouraged those who aspire to study further. To sum up, we would consider IMS as
a place for people who have a passion and have a dream of walking their way to
success..."
